I’m trying to transition from Big4 to MBB as an experienced hire, has anyone ever used services that offer coaching for case interviews and resume editing? The particular company I’m looking at is called Management Consulting and coaches are all ex-McKinsey and BCG.

I never used coaching services when I pivoted from big4 so I can’t comment about the added value they provide. That said, I found helpful to practice casing with peers and nail down the communication to the MBB way.

That’s helpful, thank you. What other tips do you have for making a successful switch? What other resources did you use for interview prep?

It’s not very different from getting your mbb friends to just help you for free. They don’t have special knowledge!

I’m looking to transition from an academic medical center to pharma or a biotech. I have about 8 years of clinical research experience overall — 7 years combined as a CRC (CRC I, CRC II, and senior CRC) and 1 year as a PM. I’m also recently ACRP-CP certified.

I’ve worked with many different industry-sponsors and CROs throughout the years, but many jobs I am applying to require experience at a biotech/CRO/pharma company. Would really appreciate any advice or referrals. Thanks in advance!
